Dwayne’s Study Zombies

Hey, kewl dudes! How’s all your GED science goin’? I seriously wanna talk about monsters, but I gotta say somethin’ first to all you GED studiers. I like, got a comment that science is totally whack, but I couldn’t post it (sorry dude) cuz of swearing. I get it, totally. I mean, science used to make me swear all the time, till I realized that all the kewl science fiction is based on science… and all the kewl stuff we got like iPods and iPhones and XBoxes and, hey, even the comment box to put your swearing into is all based on science. Yeah, I know, science’s got math and sometimes it’s tough to understand. But it so totally rocks, dudes, cuz of all the weird stuff that can CHANGE THE WORLD! (more…)

Hey GED dudes! Yeah, you know I like dinosaurs. Like, in Jurassic Park, when the big T-Rex starts comin’ at them, and it’s so big its footsteps make the water shake… ba-boom! ba-boom! It’s comin’!!! Well, imagine that dinosaur dancing! Dudes! Hilarious! (more…)

Kewl… zombie flowers! Who knew? The GED Science test’s got ‘life science’ questions on it… and that means questions about all the kewl plants and animals and stuff… oh, yeah, and people too. And here’s one of my favorites! The GIANT, STINKY CORPSE FLOWER! It’s totally for real… a giant, stinky flower! (more…)

Ready for GED science? Are you? ARE YOU?!?! How about testing out your GED skills. So, last time you read about how osmosis is used to make MUMMIES!!! Basically, you put salt on the outside of a dead Egyptian pharaoh, and the salt sucks out the water. Why’s that? Well, there’s water inside all our cells, and the outside of cells is a MEMBRANE… and water can go in and out of it. So, what happens is, water tends to go to whichever side has the most of something dissolved in water. So, you pour a bunch of dry salt (something that dissolves) on the outside of the mummy…and the water says, “Hey! That salt doesn’t have any water dissolved in it. But we’ve got a lot of water in this cell here. We better balance it out by sending more water out into that salt!!!” And the water all goes out to dissolve with the salt. Ugh! A dried-out mummy is the result.

So, here’s a question that was on Yahoo answers. With everything you know, you can solve this question, easy.

“How does osmosis explain the fact that a watery syrup forms when you put sugar on strawberries?”

You’re using a GED skill called application. You’re applying what you know to a different problem. Can you solve it? CAN YOU? Click here to see the answer: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080219200533AARCjin&show=7

And keep studying that science for your GED!

Want to learn some GED science, and find out how the government’s gonna invade your privacy in the future? One single strand of hair… and THEY can tell where you were all last year? Can they tell what planet I was abducted to, that’s what I wanna know! Yeah, it’s true, a new science study can figure out where you were by lookin’ at your hair. (more…)
